outline_colinear_vectors

Do any segments have colinear vectors?

outline_colinear_vectors

• Applies to: TTF
• Fontspector can hotfix?: no
• Fontspector can fix sources?: no

Rationale

This check looks for consecutive line segments which have the same angle. This normally happens if an outline point has been added by accident.

This check is not run for variable fonts, as they may legitimately have colinear vectors.
